My Summer 2021 Bucket List in Review!
I know I’m a little late to the game as far as giving you a review of my summer… especially since it is already the end of September. However, I’ve been able to find some time this week to write and reflect on my summer, and how I can best share it with all of you. So, without further or do, here is my Summer 2021 Bucket List in Review!
MY SUMMER BUCKET LIST
1. Publish my 2nd Children’s Book
My book is written and illustrated. I just need to edit and publish it!

2. Go to the Lake Shore at least once.
I didn’t do that this summer. It’s not that I didn’t have the opportunity, more less it was just too hot.
3. Finish reading the Old Testament
I didn’t quite finish reading the Old Testament but I did read through a lot of books, including:
- Genesis
- Exodus
- Leviticus
- Numbers
- Deuteronomy
- Joshua
- Judges
- Ruth
- 1 Samuel
- 2 Samuel
- 1 Kings
- 2 Kings
- 1 Chronicles
- 2 Chronicles
- Psalms
- Zechariah
- Malachi
4. Have a successful Balcony Garden
I kind of failed as a plant mom this year. Things were looking promising in the beginning, but once it hit 90° everyday in August, I kind of gave up. I realized this summer how much I dislike the heat. 🥵

5. Organize my Bedroom
Hey, I actually did start on this goal as well! We started organizing our bedroom by moving the pack n’ play/ bassinet by our bed, moving a bookshelf and going through some storage totes.
6. Buy a new Wardrobe
I have bought a lot of cute maternity items this summer. 🥰

7. Publish my Memoir
This project was put on hold for the summer. I didn’t realize how hard it would be to write about my previous losses while being pregnant with our rainbow baby.
8. Make a Big Announcement
On June 18th we were able to make our big announcement and say…
Guess what? For this baby we have prayed… our rainbow is due in January 2022!

9. Reach 300 Blog Posts
I didn’t quite make it to 300 blog posts, but I came very close with a total of 291.
10. Take lots of Naps
Yes, Yes, and Yes! I found out I was pregnant on the last day of April. This meant that I hit the worst of my morning sickness in the beginning of summer, which in turn allowed me to take lots of naps. 😴
Well there you go, a review of my summer! Can’t wait until next summer! ☀️
